Mattyl 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2014 Hi Everyone, We purchased a NZ new E46 328i manual in black a couple of months ago. It is all standard with a full service history and very nice to drive. Its got a couple of issues, water leaking into passenger foot well and noisy front elec windows. Windows were working fine until a couple of days ago and leak only became evident after a massive dousing of rain while the car was outside(its usually kept undercover) I'm hopping to be able to get these sorted by sifting through old forum posts. Also who do people use as there BMW mechanic in Tauranga? Cheers, Mat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

qube 3570 Report post Posted August 6, 2014 leak is most like sunroof panel area if it has sunroof. windows will just be the motor. get someone like brent at bmworld to help out with secondhand parts and diy or take to local garage to get them fitted Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
